This is an unconfirmed satellite detection. It may be a fire, or another heat source (industrial, agricultural).
⚠️ The fires shown are automatic satellite heat detections from NASA FIRMS. They are not verified on the ground and are not 100% accurate — they can include false alarms (industrial heat, gas flares, sun glint) or miss small or cloud-covered fires.
